Default New Release -- March 9th, 2016

See Known Issues, More Information and Post Release Updates at the end of this post. Last info posted on March 31th, 6:10AM.

Hi There,

We just released a new version of the game with the following new features and bug fixes: EN ESPAÑOL AQUI//En français ici

1. New St Patrick and Easter items: 6 St Patrick items (released a week ago) and 10 new Easter items.

2. 42 x 42 expansions for farms 21 - 28: 20000000000 coins or 30 FarmCash.

3. 25 New Levels: Top level is now 725.

4. Added the 'Dead Roses Pot' to the Farm Decor category: This is a useful item that experienced designers use regularly to create realistic farms.

5. Belt and Dans for the next 10 facilities: Australian Restaurant, Irish Restaurant, Uniform Factory, Summer Gear Factory, Cuban Restaurant, Irrigation Supplies Factory, Windows and Doors Factory, Canadian Restaurant, African Restaurant and Orchard Supplies Factory.

6. Super Storage Tools (35 FC): Red Super Storage Shed duplicate item storage size. Orange Super Storage Shed will make your item storage 4 times as big.

7. Continued the development of the Neighborhood Chains Contest: We spent most of the time on this release developing this feature, we estimate we should be able to release the first version in 1-2 weeks.

This is a weekly contest where 10 Farmtown neighborhoods compete against each other by operating the longest and most productive facility chains. Here are some preliminary rules and concepts:

a) Your neighborhood is just the collection of all your neighbours, that will be your team
b) A neighborhood chain for facility X is the collection of all the facilities X that you own plus the ones that your neighbours own
c) Every week 4 facilities will be selected and 4 neighborhood chains will be automatically created for those facilities in your neighborhood
d) Groups of 10 neighborhoods each will be pre-selected by the game and their members will start competing
e) The winning neighborhood will be the one that earn the most XP points by producing or stocking goods on those 4 neighborhood chains
f) We are still deciding what the rewards will be

We will post more information here in the coming days.
